I can confirm everything that Snowguy said about the Minnesota-Wisconsin rivalry, but in my opinion, the rivalry is more prevalent with Wisconsin-Illinois.

Anyways, I've known that apparently Florida has beef against Georgia. TBH I don't know why....



...oh wait

*steps back a lot to see the Florida vs Georgia crapstorm to ensue*

EDIT: Okay, actually, it's not really a matter of "redneck" vs "civilized". I have no bad blood against the DeleGAtion. My family is from Wisconsin, so I'm more attached to the Wisconsin vs Illinois/Minnesota rivalry than the Florida vs Georgia one. Tongue

I'm pretty sure Michigan and Ohio went to war with each other once.

And Ohio lost since it kept Toledo.
Well, technically, it wasn't a war, because there was very little violence.  It was a border dispute known as the "Toledo War."  Michigan got most of the UP in exchange for ceding the Toledo strip to Ohio, so we actually got the better deal out of that.

And you're welcome for that. IIRC it was originally Wisconsin Territory, until Michigan had your little skirmish with Ohio Tongue
